Has anyone else run into this WinHelp problem?
We've compiled a .hlp file of around 1.26M, with 1200 topics. The
Find tab generates an out-of-memory message when trying to search the
database.
Is there a limit to the size of the help file or the number of topics
it should contain?
Thanks for all your help.
